Templar Tank/Healer hybrid

r34lian · November 2023

Planning on making my healer also be able to tank. Kind of confused on what sets should I go for and what should the set up?
I'm thinking of going with one trial set and a monster set. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Templar tanks are amazing, Tormentor set with Explosive charge on your front snb bar,.. AOE TAUNTS BABY!
Put on Tremor scale for the unique armour debuff and for your back bar run a resto for heals and any healer set you like. maybe spell power cure or powerful assault.. you can prc PA with echoing vigor.

Also werewolf tank in tormentor

Turning Tide is a great set and it works really well in combination with Nazaray.

Recently, I noticed that Extended Ritual has the potential for generating lots of Ultimate for your group (Light Weaver passive). I doubled down and went with Drake's Rush to help generate loads of Ultimate while still using the Bash mechanic from Turning Tide. Everyone's real happy with how often they get to Ult!

Alternatively, you could replace Drake's Rush with Powerful Assault. The Frost Pulsar slot is a floating slot, sometimes it's the range taunt or an interrupt or Vigor, so you could run Echoing Vigor instead. I don't think Powerful Assault works with Turning Tide, but its a strong effect nonetheless.

Void Bash is perfect for Templar Tanking when used in combination with Radiant Ward. It's a really short cooldown of 12 seconds, so if you position yourself wisely, you can even use it as a substitute for Silver Leash. Plus, fairly often, the AOE damage from Radiant Ward is enough to soft taunt some enemies into attack you. Work smarter, not harder.

Over all, I'v really been enjoying Templar Tanking with these sets. It's like a little dance when you get everything just right. Very satisfying.
